Question no. 1 - Preloader :)

I search and read almost all on this forum, and nothing. Please see that web site:

ff_mode2 (size: ~130kb)

I put for this movie/web site normal preloader from 3DFA. It is called: "Loading progress bar".

Nothing acts. All preloaders are freeze. Only text 'loading' and zero of animation. Before i try use this code:

Code:

---

  pct = getBytesLoaded() / getBytesTotal() * 100;
  ptext= "LOADING  "+toString (int(pct)) + "%"
  element ("pct_bar").scale.x = pct

---

Results:

Code:

---

int() is not a method of Movie on line 2   ptext= "LOADING  "+toString (int(pct)) + "%"

---

WHY?? :confused:

Mayby your movie just loads so fast??

Hmm, good. Almost. Error is gone, but this preloader works only when i play a movie in 3DFA. On server still is a freeze.

Btw. I use 3DFA 4.9.6.2

So I must show Preloader, Progress and LoadResult? But how?

Can somebody help me please?

Like many elements in 3DFA. The preload feature is scheduled for a Flash 9 upgrade. The old preload feature will soon be removed and replaced with a Preloader element. The new element will work by having a small preload movie load a separate main movie swf file.

You can implement the same technique now, or you can wait for the new implementation to become available in 3DFA.

In any case, we are looking very closely this week at ironing out some of the problems that have been reported on the topics of preloading and loading external swfs. A fixed version will be released as soon as possible.

The Flash Element has now been updated in version 4.9.6.5
